Good day,



One feature I have used for at least 20 years with various verions of ksh is 
the ability to escape and scroll through my .history file using the lower case 
letters k and j when vi is designated as my editor in my .profile.� I just 
implemented mksh which is the supposed replacement for pdksh in
Debian but I am unable to scroll through my .history file using the lower case 
letters k and j.� I am however able to scroll through my history file using the 
arrow keys.


Is there a way to implement the scroll via lower case letters k and j when vi 
is selected as your editor with mksh?


I've never used mksh or pdksh, but when I used to use ksh on unix systems I recall I used to have to "set -o vi" to enable that facility.
